Hi, folks. I'm interested in photography, music, reading, genealogy, arts & crafts, and getting mail from around the world. I'm also hooked on my computer, which explains why I don't get more done in other areas! I love animals in general, and cats in particular.
I've recently gotten back to posting fairly regularly on my blog, which seems to have turned into largely a postcard/humor blog. Strange combination, I know.
Yes!! Lots! Country, bluegrass, jazz, blues, singer/songwriter folky stuff, 60s-70s oldies, classic R&B, classical, hand drumming and world music. Collecting music seems to be a compulsion with me. I have far more than I could ever listen to.
Mysteries, thrillers, cookbooks, history, humor, biography, memoirs, haiku and cowboy poetry.
I'm a documentary freak - PBS, Smithsonian, National Geographic, etc.
Crochet, knitting, cross-stitch, iris folding and card-making. I like coloring mandalas and other intricate designs with markers or colored pencils, then using the pictures in various craft projects. I play around in Photoshop Elements with digital images. On occasion I make my own postcards.
Movies with good characterizations (as opposed to just lots of action). Car chases and explosions don't do much for me. I'm especially fond of films set in historical times or good psychological thrillers.
Things I like: post cards (art, children's book illustrations, old posters, advertising, Oriental scenes, cars), artsy stickers, origami paper, iris folding paper, rubber stamps, pens, colored markers, bookmarks, paper ephemera.
Things I don't care for: "cutesy" teenager stuff, tea or coffee, lip balm, anything perfumed. If it's bright pink and sparkly, I probably don't want it. :)
